I really enjoy your videos. You girls are very fortunate to work and learn from your grand daddy as I was. Dont take that for granted, enjoy and embrace every minute!!!!!! Please preserve the barn, heck as a5th generation carpenter, I would help for free enjoy your family, preserve history, extend your grand daddys legacy!!!!
Much respect to these ladies and their family.
Those big beams would have been made on site or transported by teams of horses to the site and than raised into place by the same horses using block and tackle rigging Ms. Emerald.
Number 1 Hem/Fir excellant dimensional lumber. Hem/fir rapidly grows into tall straight trees. It's no wonder this wood is the favourite of west coast loggers and then builders. Time for a Hem/Fir Pole barn build to protect sawmill and keep dry retail lumber.
Those beams are wonderful. I own a barn built approximately in 1868. Not as big as your barn but the roof beams are 59 feet long and the short side is 39 feet long. From the fountation to the peak is 58 feet high. I can find the builder marks written in roman numerals.
The original roff was split shingles, metal replaced that about 1930 and I had Amish roofers replace that metal in 2023. I put metal myself on the most weathered side in 2009. The wooden siding is vertical and are about 22 feet long.
Sounds like a nice barn!!
Starting at about 2:15 the sound of the saw blade melds well with the music in the audio. The production quality of the LCLY content keeps getting better. 👍🏼
WOW!! Em' what an amazing video, what an incredible Barn!!
As a builder out west those beams are impressive. We don't have much for old growth giant trees in my area. Everybody who says reuse or recycle those beams we definitely do. Reclaimed lumber is a big business
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas.
Love this barn. My Grandpa was a barn builder lead man a hundred years ago in Southern Michigan. Old forest wood, back then was not as appreciated as it is today.
What a fabulous barn! It kills me that so many old barns are torn down for no good reason except someone wants a metal building! My Great-Great Uncle built a number of barns in my county, many of which are still standing over 150 years later. All wood notches and construction! Back East, I am sure there are many, many great barns. BTW, I am guessing 80 feet long beam!
Great video! Awesome to hear about hemlock and its connection to the barn. If you get around to refurbishing the barn, that project would make for some awesome content too.
Love that barn! And hand hewn beams are so beautiful :)
I loved the harmonica. So many hidden talents.
Hahahaha. Talent?
Nice wood !!!
I wired a post and beams "playhouse" for a very wealthy family years ago.
The 2 queens beams were 30"×24"×88' and were shipped to Massachusetts from Oregon.
Needless to say, but that "playhouse" for the kids was about 4.5 million to complete.....
And that was after they spent 6.7 mil on the property, and before the main house was built.
Crazy. More money than sense.
I had the pleasure of pulling wiring for new machines in a timber framed factory, the trusses were about 26" by 40"
The supports were about 40" square.
The floor was made of wood bricks, coated and infused in every substance used in the factory since it was built.
@@thealgonquin5822 True only if it was a lot of money to them. Probably, it wasn't. Even if they spent $25 million total on the property, they probably have a private jet costing double that. They probably spent fewer years of income, and a smaller percentage of their net worth, than the average person does on a house. As long as they make something another rich person would want if/when they eventually sell it, it really doesn't matter how much it costs. If they never sell it, and keep it in the family forever, then it is fine to spend even more than someone else would buy it for.
Remember, it's money they're spending on themselves, and they can afford it. If they want to pinch pennies, they can do that in their business, with their employees, etc. Just give raises that don't quite keep up with inflation, and it's paid for.
Really sad how many thousands of these beams have been left to rot in abandoned barns.
wow that barn on the inside looked breathtaking. not so many barns look like that, over on this side of the pond.
From Pennsylvania to Northern New York State, you can see a few barns that are over 200 years old.
What a great barn. It looks like its set up for a gathering of some type. I am going to build a 24' x 40' wood working shop ( so I can get my garage back ) I want to do board and batten siding and hemlock or cedar would be great. I dont think hemlock has as many knots as cedar, does it?
80 ft long that barn is a real classic cost 500000 today to build my dad loved those long beams he could saw 34 ft but not anything like that yes that took a few hands to get that big boy up that high merry christmas to you all
Merry Christmas Emerald & Jade.
Hey Em, please, recycle any Hemlock Barn siding ya'll peel off. Very desirable commodity, P.S. Glad to see Jade wearing gloves.
Amazing wood for sure ! Out in California we have hem fir about half the price of doug fir in pressure treated wood..i prefer the doug fir..its straighter and higher quality..love the barn..thanks girls ! ❤
What a beautiful barn! I LOVE old barns and houses, and own an older home as well.(125 years old), but lots of old history in these places. It looks like it is set up to accommodate functions, are you hosting weddings there? Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your videos with us, hope you all have a awesome Christmas.
A beautiful and historic building. Please keep it in good shape.
Wow guys! That barn is increasable! I would love to see you guys restore it. To bad it was not at the log yard you could put your mill under it so you are out of the weather!
Actually the ground floor ceiling is too low for the LT-70 mill and the upstairs would not work for the mill ether.
I live in eastern PA (Lehigh Valley). I have been inside many barns built more than 100 years ago. Along with the wood of then and metal of then--- The workmanship and effort with the tools of the day is awe inspiring!
What a awesome barn . There are a few barns here in BC Canada like that. Some of the barns are falling down and the wood is salvaged and is reused in remodeling .
There was a T V program showing in the U K a while back called barnwood builders in the USA who purchased old timber barns then demolished them carefully after labeling every item and relocated them and used the reclaimed beams etc to build Log cabins and beautiful homes.
I enjoyed all aspects of this content! The snow, the milling, the barn tour and Em your commentary. Jade, great video work and you were the one out in the snow swamping. 1880, do you suppose that huge beam was cut by a water wheel mill? Those trees were giants..
I love how Emerald says, "we'll get around to doing it sometime" when she really means, we have grandpa doing literally everything else currently and we can't crack the whip anymore lol
The rest of the family earns the living and Grandpa works to make things better for the family.
@@scottsoper I'm just joking relax. Her grandpa is an amazing dude is all I was getting at.
LOLOL!
@@ToiletTxtr It's even worse than that, Grandpa is representative of a whole generation in the workforce, amongst which Grandpa is not that remarkable or that unusual. But that at the broader expanse of societies, we're finding out slowly but surely what happens, when this generation recedes away and is gone. Roger Bisby whom I used to tune into for his plumbing trade points of view in '18 to '19 in particular, I've realized has become successful on Skill Builders, where he describes and debates various tasks in building. An episode in which Roger received 'a million' views, is where he spoke of the 'Jack of all trades', and Roger was able to speak from that aspect, and his own experience. He doesn't look it, or act as we'd expect a senior person to. Roger is British, of Grandpa's generation, and we're witnessing this across a lot of western societies now (Roger's description of French trades working days in definitely worth a look, the British and French have some contradictory views on stuff), this attempt to do a hand over to upcoming generations, of knowledge that is disappearing fast.
At the considerable risk of making this sound too academic, except that one is talking about very old things and old ways of doing things. Dr. Julia Osman who understands French language fluently and has specialized in her studies on the interactions between England and France (and how that as a result had impacted on the colonies abroad and it's development into a new country), her 2012 talk at the American Revolution Institute published recently, it really goes into that question about the long, long friction and complicated relationship that England and France had to each other (and what that had meant for places such as Pennsylvania of old).
The Beverly Mill in Virginia had beams, that Im certain were at least 24"x24", probably 50'(?) long...they were crazy cool. Then someone burned down the mill. It was very sad. I know what you mean when you see "old growth" beams. They are truly amazing.
Well impressed with the way your team worked from day one. the volume of work completed was unreal, emerald thank you.
Yep old outside siding looks good on the inside as well 🤔🧐😎
Homes in the midwest and northeast US are mostly built with Eastern Hemlock. Homes in the southern US are built mainly with SYP (southern yellow pine) for joists and rafters and sometimes with SPF (spruce-pine-fir) for the studs. In the western US, Douglas Fir dominates.
Unless they're modern, then everything is spruce, often of marginal quality.
We on the west coast are very well aquainted with Doug fir, Hemlock, wester red Cedar, spruce, and on the eastern slopes of the Cascades several species of pine we also have maple alder popular and cottonwood, little to no hardwoods, but we get along just fine as fir, hemlock, and pine are just great building materials....
God Jul fra Danmark ....Merry Christmas from Denmark
Merry Christmas , Happy New Year and God bless you and your family. From Rob and Ruth in Edmonton Alberta.
The beams in the barn,.. how to move it, is via a river. Huon Pines in Tasmania grow to a height where a single piece can be used as the mast of a 'tall ship' sailing vessel, going all the way from the keel to the top. The tree's cut for that were floated down the Huon river, same as most foresting before the middle of last century used rivers to transport produce.
A great old barn...👍
I'm in Western NC where Helene destroyed so much. This video brought a lot of comfort.
We get it. You guys got hit by a hurricane. Texas gets hurricanes every year, and florida took two hurricans on Ft Myers 2 weeks apart. I have never heard of american bishing and complaining as hard as Carolina as if you a little innocent children who need big daddy government to come give you food and build your houses for you. You understand we all take hurricanes and rebuild roads and bridges, its just that you are the whiny little ones.
Amazing video today. Noticed @01:51 almost had a blooper.❤😊
Emerald you and Jade are just............. Man oh Man!! Have A Merry Christmas. PS- Very cool barn.
Beautiful wooden beams.
The virgin Hemlock that was here over 100 years ago were enormous. Sadly, many were cut down to remove the bark for tannic acid and sold to local Tannerys for this alone. They did not have the equipment to remove the logs from many sites. I know of a few in Zoar Valley NY that are near that size. Not harvestable as they are on nature sanctuaries.
Good video Emerald! ❤❤
I love her enthusiasm for nature. It's wholesome. I hope she doesn't get weighed down with world events and stuff like so many young people do.
A more involved process is the one of veneer manufacturing.
I'm a fan of the emerging technology of hemp wood and hemp flooring.
A marriage of the two for interior siding would be hemp sheeting with hardwood veneering on it.
Being a good land Steward is Paramount for life itself. Good morning have a wonderful holiday to you and your family. 🌹💗🌹
I dunno, 75 feet? That's crazy! You are SO entertaining! ❤
Emerald!your a a precious connoisseur when it comes to trees and wood and the forests! Thanks for showing the barn frame !
What are you going to do with barn?
The barn has a number of special rooms in it. One of those rooms is Grandpa's blade sharpening room.
Love the Wood and Barn😮❤. Reminds me of Good Times. Merry Christmas to Y'all
Awesome barn
Amazing barn. Great atmosphere. I don't mind the red, but once you fix it, natural will also be great I guess.
Love the Barn!!
Barn was phenomenal. Inside looks like a party barn for rent perhaps. The outside definitely needs some work. Siding is a must and the foundation looks pretty sketchy. You don't want to start letting it decay to the point of collapse. When the roof goes, the rest will follow. I don't know if groundhogs or other burrowing animals are prevalent in your area like around here. They can actually cause a foundation to fail. Take the time and get that taken care of. It should last another 150 years with proper care. 😊😊
I agree. The barn needs some care before it starts to have real problems.
Incredible! That, thing is far more beautiful then even the prettiest comparison!
Emerald, thank you…YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!
Now eastern hemlock is very uncommon where I live in Wisconsin it's less than two per cent of all lumber in the state, But I enjoy learning about it.
Love old barns. Nice one ❤
Beautiful ladies thanks.
Très beau travaille d’ingénierie nos anciens savaient bosser merci pour la visite de cette magnifique grange passer de bonne fête de fin d’année joyeux Noël de la Bretagne
LCLY, That Timberframing in Your Barn is Awesome. I bet that was built by German Amish People. I did a job for a customer that had their Barn resided. They used Hemlock. I found a Iron Prybar onto p of one of the Beams and cast into the side of the prybar was 1906 God Bless
wow what a amazing build
Mount Pocono in Pennsylvania has some old growth hemlock amongst other species truly spectacular to be amongst them !! Stimulates all your senses !
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
WOW!! What an incredible barn! I had a Pennsylvania farm house built in the 1700’s and loved the barn!
Cool old barn, nice timber framing, looks like your setup for a barn dance
Snow and y'all go together well, we get some here in the SW but not often enough.
Looks cold ! 🥶🥶
Telling you are home schooled... Not many high school grads these days would refer to Socrates' death story, I think... Nor college grads, more's the pity. Good on 'ya.
I wish you a trully happy Christmas from Zebegény, Hungary with love.
Cool barn
Merry Christmas to all the LCLY fam!
It took a forest to build Notre Dame Cathedrale . 1500 Oak Trees to rebuild it . Amazing what can be done with wood .
Great video. Merry Christmas
That’s a beautiful barn!
Hemlock is great. My brothers built two homes from hemlock and white pine.
- Tsk-tsk...Red's been reading books again (Socrates). This must stop!!
- That beam is over 10 ft. long...I guarantee it.
- Nothing more beautiful for trimming out interior windows than (clear-coated) Hemlock. But I personally like to trim mine out with what I still have lying around, which is Brazilian rosewood. I have about 20,000 bd. ft. of it left over from the 30's, which I can't seem to get rid of - nobody will take it. So I use a lot of it for firewood.
Beautiful old barn, ash was a wood used in the Indiana area. it is extremely stable for interior beams but will not take weather.
Did you say your family bought the old barn ??? and what is it now being used for ????
The barn is part of the Breon home property. The barn has Grandpa's saw blade sharpening tools in it and there are some other special rooms in the barn.
NOW THATS A BARN!!! THANKS SO ,FOR SHOWING US
Love the barn.
Do you hold parties or wedding receptions in the barn? Seems like it would be a nice place for that.
The landscape looks nice in the snow, but it is cold certainly, someone not very glad about this🙂, and it is a time for gloves. Really huge beams, and I wonder how it is not eaten by beetles yet. (Hi from Belarus. Harry Davidson)
You might be able to rig a three pole with triangle tarp for a cover over Jade?
Jade popping out of the background looking like a Mortal Kombat character >,
An out building like that is quite an asset. Do you have plans for using it for your business?
They use it now. The blade sharpening room is in this barn.
My barn has some hemlock beams that are around 35 feet long.
Alright ladies. Get out your Scandinavian felling axe, broad axe, and long handled adz and recreate that beam!
When that barn does get new siding, The old siding can be repurposed in lots of different ways.$$$✌
We have the poisonous stuff, it is a weed from the umbellifera family, related to carrots, a herb, not a tree. I love your saw mill. So what is the botanical name of your hemlock.
Love the harmonica playing U should do more of it. I play to 😂❤🙏🇨🇦🇺🇸
Wow such long beams!
Merry Christmas
Why don't you guys maintain the barn to curb the deterioration?
everything takes time and money. However I do think that they should patch up some things to keep the water out.
Just imagine the stories we would hear, if only that old barn could talk! 😊
Congratulations!
Here in the western United States we hear hemlock and we think floppy top trees that have no depth to their roots and fall over easily in the middle of the night dominoing a bunch of alder trees down the hillside to smash in your shop roof.
... neat old timbe frame ..!
